Monogatari (物語, lit. « Story ») is the general name for a series of Japanese light novels written by Japanese novelist Nisio Isin and illustrated by Taiwanese illustrator Vofan. Kodansha has published 24 novels since November 2006 under their Kodansha Box imprint, with at least five more novels planned.
